Re: Collaboration of Wagon Wheel

<t>Great job and great fun! It was fun just to watch the three of you having a good time; it WAS obvious that you were having a good time. I wasn't familiar with the song but I really enjoyed it.<br/> As others have said, I too am envious. Wish I could meet lots of the TGers and get a chance to sit ...

Re: When did you start learning melodies and music? You may be surprised...

<t>In the book, "This is Your Brain on Music" Levitin speaks of studies done on children exposed to music in the womb. They actually remembered the sounds when toddlers.<br/> <br/> Well, this explains a lot.....<br/> <br/> While carrying me, my mother was very poor and ate mostly pinto beans and cab...

Re: Busking Crosby, Stills & Nash

Very nice job, George. Can't go wrong with CSN (&Y). Love lots of their stuff, have for years.
Very good vocals and guitar work, I really enjoyed it.

Re: Busking Death Cab for Cutie

<t>Very nice, Al. I like the finger strumming on this song. Yes, I do that often, especially if I'm playing around, working on a song by myself.<br/> Okay, DCFC, Postal Service, what's next - My Chemical Romance, Snow Patrol, Staind? Actually, nice song. It reminds me of my kids (not really kids any...

Re: Mad World- by Suziko

Really well done! I enjoyed that immensely. Like Dean, I too would like to know what tabs you used. Pass them on, please?

The vocals were a little soft, I couldn't really hear you. :)

Re: Busking WAYFARING STRANGER

Very nice Buddy. This song and key fit your voice well. Maybe I've missed it in the past, but it looks like you have quite a home studio set up with both audio and video. Is this correct?
Good job.

Re: >>New Target and Pay Per Lesson release - Catch The Wind - Donovan

I've been playing this song for many years with basic strums and bass runs. I look forward to adding some melody notes as shown here.
Thanks.

Re: Lyrics that tell it like it is?. . .You were Right when you said:

Lyrics not really "right" or "wrong" but sometimes how I feel when life gets complicated with "adult" problems: "Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then."

NOT that I would want to be an adolescent again, really.

Re: Microphone Suggestion?

<t>Hi Dan. Here's my two cents. I have a(n) SM58 I bought in 1990 and have many hundreds of hours of use on it. Still going strong, and never abused (maybe dropped on carpet once). I also have a more recent Shure Beta58 that I love and a Shure Beta 87A (condenser for stage). All are great mics. We h...
